Project Characteristics and Results
Notable Community Participation
An in-depth consultation has already taken place, with discussions beginning in 2010 with community and stakeholders representatives. This proposal has evolved as a direct result of that consultation process and a pre-project development visit which was undertaken from October 2011 by the GEF-Small Grants Programme NC.
Promoting Public Awareness of Global Environment
Knowledge transfer and capacity building based on personal involvement of local people are at the heart of this project and hence dissemination is an integral aspect of what is planned.
